Samsung Electronics today announced the launch of its next-generation earbuds: Galaxy Buds Pro. These earbuds feature immersive sound, superior call quality, intelligent ANC and enhanced connectivity across your devices – all packed into a modern and sleek design. Galaxy Buds Pro represent Samsung’s most premium earbuds offering to date, built to help you get the most out of your work, entertainment, and everything in between.

“As people look for technology that helps them adapt to new routines and lifestyles, the market for true wireless earbuds has expanded substantially, and consumer expectations have risen,” said TM Roh, President and Head of Mobile Communications Business, Samsung Electronics. “With Galaxy Buds Pro, we’re making a big statement with a small device, offering users a one-of-a-kind audio experience that makes even everyday tasks truly epic.”

Unparalleled Sound & Call Quality

A premium earbuds experience always starts with sound. Whether you use your earbuds to play music on a run or listen to podcasts on the way to work, audio quality is what matters most. Galaxy Buds Pro offer a more comprehensive sound, sporting an 11-millimeter woofer for deeper bass and a 6.5-millimeter tweeter for a crisp treble with minimum distortion. This delivers Samsung’s best audio experience yet – a dynamic, balanced sound. So, whether it’s a rhythmic hip hop groove or intricate classical melody, you can enjoy your music just as the artist intended, anytime and anywhere.

But earbuds aren’t just for entertainment anymore – they’ve become crucial for work communication, and call quality is more important than ever. Galaxy Buds Pro separate your voice from unwanted sounds with three microphones and a Voice Pickup Unit (VPU), ensuring you are heard as clearly as possible. One of the outer microphones also has a high signal-to-noise ratio(SNR), further eliminating background noises. In addition, Samsung has integrated its new Wind Shield technology into Galaxy Buds Pro. While a less protrusive shape minimizes the wind contact area, a specially designed chamber and mesh filters out wind interference. Your phone calls have never been clearer, even if you’re stuck in windy weather.

Most Intelligent ANC on True Wireless Earbuds

The Galaxy Buds Pro experience is about hearing more of what you love, and less of what you don’t. That’s why Galaxy Buds Pro have the most intelligent ANC capabilities of any true wireless earbuds.¹ When you need to focus on work – or tune out from the world around to relax – you can reduce the background noise by up to 99 percent,² fine-tuning to your preferred level. And with Ambient Sound, you can choose to amplify nearby sounds by more than 20 decibels, meaning you can adjust and personalize according to your needs. This feature is ideal for busy multitaskers – those working from home while looking after a child or those who want to take a run through the city while staying alert for oncoming traffic.

What’s more, ANC and Ambient Sound automatically work together, adapting to your surroundings, to optimize your audio experience. Galaxy Buds Pro recognize when you’re speaking, and they can automatically switch between canceling nearby sounds and amplifying them.³ They will also turn down your music when you want to talk, even if you are using Ambient Sound or have ANC turned off. This technology allows you to hear and communicate more effectively and makes Galaxy Buds Pro the perfect tool for daily use.

An Even More Seamless Galaxy Experience

Galaxy Buds Pro are an integral extension of the Galaxy ecosystem – our most seamless earbuds yet. Now, you can automatically toggle your earbuds connection between your Galaxy smartphones and tablets based on your usage – no manual adjustments required.⁴ For example, if you’re watching a video on your Galaxy Tab S7 and then receive a call on your Galaxy S21, the all-new Auto Switch feature will pause the video and let you answer the phone using Galaxy Buds Pro. Once the call is over, your earbuds instantly switch back to your tablet; the video plays again, and you can hear the audio through your earbuds again.

Galaxy Buds Pro also expand your audio experience by connecting with other Galaxy devices – especially Galaxy S21. You can enjoy realistic and immersive sound on your Galaxy Buds Pro, wherever you go with the 360 Audio featuring Dolby Head Tracking technology,⁵ which enables you to stay at the center of the scene. For vloggers, you can clearly capture your voice and surrounding sound by synchronizing the mics on your Galaxy Buds Pro and Galaxy S21. Galaxy Buds Pro also boast Game Mode, so when reduced audio latency is paired with Galaxy S21’s powerful performance and immersive display, you can take your gaming experience to the next level.

No matter how you use your Galaxy Buds Pro, you can do so without worrying about battery life. When fully charged, you get up to 8 hours of playback, with an additional 20 hours of reserve power available in the wireless charging case. Even when using ANC, you can still enjoy 5 hours of playback with 13 hours more available in the case.⁶ If you end up running out of juice, you can gain one hour of playtime after just five minutes of quick charging.⁷

New Stylish & Purposeful Design

Galaxy Buds Pro aren’t just great to use, they also look great. Taking inspiration from Galaxy Buds Live’s innovative and iconic shape, Galaxy Buds Pro feature an updated, more ergonomic form factor. The shape of the canal-type earbuds improves sound quality, plus it looks less protrusive and more natural when in your ears. This new design also reduces the contact area between your ear and the bud, improving comfort and minimizing a clogged-up feeling.

In addition, Galaxy Buds Pro are designed to give you added peace of mind. They are protected with an IPX7 water resistance rating,⁸ the highest standard of water resistance in the Galaxy Buds line. And now, worrying about losing an earbud is a thing of the past. SmartThings Find can easily locate either of your earbuds, even when they’re out of Bluetooth^® range or completely out of sight, misplaced at a distant location.⁹ Galaxy Buds Pro were also built to help cut down on waste – using 20 percent environmentally conscious Post-Consumer Materials (PCM).

Availability

Galaxy Buds Pro come in three stunning colors: timeless Phantom Black and Phantom Silver, and an incredible Phantom Violet¹⁰ to match with your Galaxy S21. Galaxy Buds Pro will be available in select markets starting from January 15^th.

Samsung Electronics Australia has announced the release of its all new 4K Ultra Short Throw laser projector, The Premiere – providing Australians with a big picture cinematic experience in the comfort of their own home.

The Premiere will be available in 2 models; the LSP7T single laser projector offering up to 120-inch screen size and the LSP9T which boasts triple laser technology with an up to 130 inch image size.¹

The Premiere LSP9T is the world’s first HDR10+ certified projector, delivering revolutionary contrast and detail from bright and dark scenes with a peak brightness of up to 2,800 ANSI lumens².

“It’s no secret that Australians want the ultimate in-home entertainment and big screen experience. The Premiere offers a massive 130-inchesof 4K picture quality from its innovative ultra-short throw triple laser projection technology, recreating the experience of the movies at home. With its compact design and big sound, if you’re looking for a truly cinematic experience this is the ideal projector for your theatre or living room.”

“We’re committed to providing Australians with a rich and diverse portfolio of AV products that meet the changing tastes and experiences of households – we’re excited to revolutionise the projector category with The Premiere,” said Jeremy Senior, Vice President of Consumer Electronics, Samsung Australia.

With its ultra-short throw laser technology, The Premiere can be positioned up close to the wall1 – allowing the sleek and compact design to neatly fit into a living room arrangement, and also allow for the unit to be moved easily away from the wall to adjust the screen size. Setup is quick and easy with no obtrusive installations.

With 2,200 lumens of brightness in the LSP7T and 2,800 in the LSP9T, The Premiere delivers incredible brightness with defining detail.² The Premiere also supports Filmmaker Mode – the first of its kind for a projector – which helps remove motion smoothing and other post-processing treatments allowing Aussies to watch movies as the creators intended

While The Premiere is bright and versatile enough to be used on a white wall in a semi-lit room, for the best picture quality experience it’s recommended to be paired with a CLR projection screen from Elite Screens.⁴ Using a CLR screen designed for ultra-short throw projectors absorbs ambient light while also reduces ceiling reflections, thus maximising the contrast and clarity of the image for the best experience possible.

Designed to fit seamlessly into your space with its premium and compact design, The Premiere looks great even when it is switched off, with no black screen left behind. The textile finish by Kvadrat delivers a stylish and minimalist design that blends into a variety of living room settings and arrangements.

The Premiere also comes with Samsung’s built-in voice assistant Bixby and Amazon’s Alexa, allowing you to control the projector using only your voice.⁵ While Samsung’s built-in Game Mode takes gaming action to a new level delivering smooth images and lightning-fast motion, minimising input lag so you can immerse yourself in the action on the big screen.

The Premiere builds on Samsung’s expanding range of lifestyle TVs, including the newly released outdoor TV, The Terrace along with The Frame, The Serif and The Sero.

Samsung Electronics Australia has today announced that its most immersive curved monitor to date will arrive in Australia. The Curved CT55 delivers a deep curve of 1000R that is designed to provide comfort and immerse the user in content by surrounding the field of view with a close viewing angle.

The Curved CT55, is now available in 32-inch and 27-inch and will retail for $449RRP and $399RRP respectively. The monitor builds on Samsung’s growing range of curved monitors that are designed for a range of highly demanding tasks in both work, gaming and entertainment environments.

Designed to enhance a more natural and comfortable viewing experience, the 1000R curvature matches the human field of view allowing users to see the whole screen in just one glance which can help to limit visual fatigue, especially during sustained use scenarios.

The new Samsung CT55 features a minimalist design, with its 3-sided borderless display stretching from edge to edge for maximum viewing. Its refined fabric-textured backside, 7.9mm Super Slim Design and premium-quality Slim Metal Stand give the curved monitor a sleek modern look. The curvature of the monitor is measured in terms of circular radius, the smaller the radius value the deeper the curve.

“The Curved CT55 monitor breaks new ground in Samsung’s range of stunning display innovation that will deliver the more immersive, comfortable, and impactful viewing experiences. It also builds on our leadership in curved monitor designs since they first launched almost five years ago.” said Phil Gaut, Director Display and Memory, at Samsung Electronics Australia. “Demand for curved monitors in Australia continues to grow as more people understand just how important their home or office work station design is when it comes to productivity and comfort.”

The CT55 monitor also features Eye Saver Mode, a function that can reduce blue light emissions and the addition of a Flicker Free Mode, which is designed to protect users’ eyes from the potential constant strain of screen flickering that can be experienced with conventional monitors. Additionally, the Game Mode provides optimal colour, contrast and shades setting for high intensity gaming sessions. Along with AMD FreeSync functionality and a rapid 75Hz refresh rate, the CT55 makes for a swift response to smooth screen transitions for a wide range of gaming styles and platforms.

The built-in 5 watt stereo speakers offer an enhanced entertainment experience when watching videos or gaming. And the convenient triple interface allows for multiple devices to be connected at the same time, bringing the level of connectivity needed in today’s working environment.

The monitor’s superior performance has been certified by TÜV Rheinland, a leading international certification organisation which has awarded Samsung the industry’s first high-performance curved display (1000R) and eye comfort certificate.1

The CT55 monitor is available now from all Samsung retailer partners.
